If you own and promote your own website you are always looking for ways to increase sales. Here are some Awesome Ways to Attract More Orders.

Create a free ebook directory on a specific topic at your web site. People will visit your web site to read the free ebooks and may see your product ad. Ebooks are very popular today because there is no waiting for the book, you download them instantly.

Try turning part of your web site into a members only web site. Instead of charging for access, use it as a free bonus for one of your products. Everyone likes to get something for free.

Add a free classified ad section to your web site or e-zine. You could then trade banner ads with other web sites that have free classified ad sections. Create two versions of your e-zine so people can choose if they want ads included with it or not. This will attract the people who hate ads to subscribe. Publish your e-zine only on your web site. Have people subscribe to a "new issue" e-mail reminder. This could really increase your traffic and sales.

Sell advertising space in your product package. You could sell inserts, flyers, brochures, booklets, and digital ads for electronic products. Allow people to download software or e-books from your web site at no cost. Just ask your visitors in return if they'll refer their friends to your web site.

Offer daily or weekly visitor bonuses. This will increase your repeat traffic and sales because your visitors will visit regularly to get the visitor bonuses.

Start your own free affiliate program. You can build up the number of people that join your free affiliate program quickly by temporally offering your product for free to the people that sign up. Negotiate with e-zine publishers to get free or discounted ads by letting them join your affiliate program and earn commissions on the ad you run.
